I will plant 1 tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard.

World Cleanup Day 2021 - are you ready to join in? It's so simple (just 3 steps) and together we can make a huge impact on our environment...here's how 1) Rally some friends, family, colleagues living nearby and help together as a team in person or virtually to cleanup our communities, local streets, rivers, lakes & parks (rubbish is to be found everywhere!). Why not even engage with the local schools & Kindergarten and get the children involved too. 2) Choose the day you wish to run your team activity (our suggestion is Friday 17th Sep) and create your own shift under this activity to log your VTO hrs! 3) Share photos of you & your teams in action, in one or both of the Earthforce Slack channels (add #worldcleanupday2021): #eq-earthforce-germany #eq-earthforce-global Remember to always adhere to local Covid safety regulations!

I will tend to a garden, or prepare for one, each day using sustainable gardening practices.

If I buy a plane ticket, I will purchase a carbon offset.

I will spend at least 20 minutes researching other Drawdown Food, Agriculture, and Land Use Solutions.

I will spend at least 20 minutes researching and advocating for a comprehensive high speed rail network in my country/region.

I will enjoy 3 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

I will research and support local farmers who have made the decision to not use synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.

I will cook 1 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will visit Tradewater’s website to learn more about carbon offsets, and why they are a necessary solution in combating a climate crisis.

I will take a walk for 30 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.
